Level 300 Astalos - TA Wiki + Mods - 5'49"74 - Berserk Bow

The rathian charge he does during his exhaust phase is awful to play against. It's slower than you think while somehow also being faster than you think....
Overall this is a fun fight, though the damage sucks for bow, but that makes the fight a bit more engaging that some other fights due to every hitzone being worth attacking if it's got a red bubble on it. Popping the bubbles is actually useful at all times so they become a priority which isn't often the case in bow runs.
This run isn't perfect, but it's the first sub 6 run of him I got so I figured I'd upload it. The fight as a lot of RNG you can't fully control like uptime on him being charged, so clean runs can sometimes be slower than dirty ones.

Asatlos seems like a great mix of a bug and dragon.

those white zones looking quite juicy 🤡🤡 good job on the run! genuinely one of the best bow users. keep up the good work

[@eddieweekley2798]

Thanks.
I may keep running him. I'm kind of annoyed he ran me over 3 times. Just not sure how much time is left to save since it seems way more reliant on getting good luck on his charged state than I thought.

Continously swapping to Close Range Coating and Back just for the Dodge-Close-Combat-Hit might be the most hardcore thing I've seen in Rise so far, lol

It might not even be an an increase in damage and I don't usually use that tech, but I was bored, and anything to make the damage go just a tiny bit higher on him was worth it. It increases hitlag so it can mess with timings and sometimes you can lose an entire volley due to it.
